Rate My Professor Eun Young Lee

Lee's scholarly work examines complex social issues through rhetorical and critical lenses. Her co-authored article "The Health Equity Discourse of Immigrant Public Health Leaders: A Critical Application of the IDEA Model," published in Communication Studies in 2023 with Alberto González, SangHee Park, and Sung-Yeon Park, analyzes how immigrant public health leaders during the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted stereotypes as model minorities while advocating for equitable healthcare reforms. This publication earned the Communication Studies Article of the Year Award from the Central States Communication Association. Additional peer-reviewed articles include "Critical race pedagogy at a crossroads: accusations of antisemitism and the silencing of Palestinian voices" in Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies (2024) and research on pan-Chinese filial nationalism in the film Mulan (2020). Beyond research, Lee actively mentors undergraduate students through Central Washington University's SOURCE research program, serves as Faculty Senate representative for Communication alongside Seokhoon Ahn, participates in the Library Advisory Council, and engages in public scholarship via panels such as "The Art of Global Protest" in the CWU Museum Series. She is also affiliated with the Asian Studies program at CWU.
